VBA Jagged Array Duplicates - arrays

Question

I'm new to coding with VBA, and a beginner programmer in general. I have the following simple table (the data keeps getting inputted on daily basis, so it changes):
Item #
Description
Date
Location
Plate
Load
Type
Rate
Cost
0001
des1
30/1/21
Site
ABC123
5
One
typ1
100
0002
des2
30/1/21
Office
ACB465
4
One
typ1
100
0003
des3
30/1/21
Office
ABC789
3
One
typ1
100
0004
des4
30/1/21
Site
ABS741
5
One
typ1
100
0005
des4
31/1/21
Office
ABC852
2
One
typ1
100
I would like to filter this data by specific date first, then delete duplicates in Location while adding the Load for said duplicates.
For example, if I wanted to filter for 30/1/21. It would end up as follows:
Location
Load
Site
10
Office
7
I would then want to put it in one summary cell as follows:
Summary
10 Site, 7 Office
I was able to filter the original table into jagged arrays. The code for that is:
For j = numberSkipD To numberRowsD
If Worksheets("Disposal Fees").Range("F" & j).Value = Worksheets("Daily Tracking").Range("B2").Value Then
For k = numberDisposalInformationRaw To numberDisposalLocation
ReDim Preserve disposalLocation(numberDisposalLocation)
disposalLocation(numberDisposalLocation) = Worksheets("Disposal Fees").Range("I" & j).Value
Next
numberDisposalLocation = numberDisposalLocation + 1
For k = numberDisposalInformationRaw To numberDisposalLoad
ReDim Preserve disposalLoad(numberDisposalLoad)
disposalLoad(numberDisposalLoad) = Worksheets("Disposal Fees").Range("K" & j).Value
Next
numberDisposalLoad = numberDisposalLoad + 1
End If
Next
I then tried to do the second table above (deleting duplicates and adding the values for said duplicates together) but it is giving me errors, not sure how to solve them. I know they're index errors, but don't know how to fix them. (Please help me with this part, here is the code)
Dim disposalInformationRaw As Variant
Dim disposalInformationCooked As Variant
Dim FoundIndex As Variant, MaxRow As Long, m As Long
ReDim disposalInformationCooked(1 To UBound(disposalInformationRaw, 1), 1 To UBound(disposalInformationRaw, 2))
MaxRow = 0
For m = 1 To UBound(disposalInformationRaw, 1)
FoundIndex = Application.Match(disposalInformationRaw(m, 1), Application.Index(disposalInformationCooked, 0, 1), 0)
If IsError(FoundIndex) Then
MaxRow = MaxRow + 1
FoundIndex = MaxRow
disposalInformationCooked(FoundIndex, 1) = disposalInformationRaw(m, 1)
End If
disposalInformationCooked(FoundIndex, 2) = Val(disposalInformationCooked(FoundIndex, 2)) + Val(disposalInformationRaw(i, 2))
Next m
Range("G1").Resize(MaxRow, UBound(disposalInformationCooked, 2)).Value = disposalInformationCooked
I don't think I'd have much trouble finalizing the third part (the summary), but if you know how to do it, please feel free to share how you would approach it. I mostly need help with the second part. I would be more than happy to edit and provide more information if needed. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Here's one approach using a dictionary.
dim dict, rw as range, locn, k, msg, theDate
set dict= createobject("scripting.dictionary")
theDate = Worksheets("Daily Tracking").Range("B2").Value
'adjust table range as required
for each rw in worksheets("Disposal Fees").range("F6:K100").rows
if rw.cells(3).Value = theDate Then 'date match?
locn = rw.cells(4).Value 'read location
dict(locn) = dict(locn) + rw.cells(6).Value 'add load to sum
end if
next rw
'loop over the dictionary keys and build the output
for each k in dict
msg = msg & IIf(len(msg) > 0, ", ", "") & dict(k) & " " & k
next k
debug.print msg

Answer 2

Sum Unique
Disposal Fees
Daily Tracking
Adjust the values in the constants section.
The Code
Option Explicit
Sub TESTsumByValue()
' Source
Const srcName As String = "Disposal Fees"
Const lCol As Long = 3
Const kCol As Long = 4
Const sCol As Long = 6
Const SumFirst As Boolean = True
Const KSDel As String = ":"
Const IDel As String = ", "
' Destination
Const dstName As String = "Daily Tracking"
' Define workbook.
Dim wb As Workbook: Set wb = ThisWorkbook ' Workbook containing this code.
' Define Source Range (You may have to do something different).
Dim srg As Range: Set srg = wb.Worksheets(srcName).Range("A1").CurrentRegion
' Write Criteria to variable.
Dim drg As Range: Set drg = wb.Worksheets(dstName).Range("B2")
Dim Criteria As Variant: Criteria = drg.Value
' Use function to get the result.
Dim s As String
s = sumByValue(Criteria, srg, lCol, kCol, sCol, SumFirst, KSDel, IDel)
Debug.Print s ' "10:Site, 4:Bathroom, 4:Office"
drg.Offset(, 3).Value = s ' writes to 'E2'
End Sub

If Not IsError(vKey) Then

If IsNumeric(vSum) Then
.Item(vKey) = .Item(vKey) + vSum
Else
